ending makes me tear up

I have about 30 wrahmmer dramas and this is my favorite.

excellent sound quality and diversity

great music and ambience

it's like 3-4 stories in one that follow the same character

good plot, sort of memoir of tau sniper and experiences he had alone or with a squad.

the ending makes me cry

Maybe Skip the Tau'Va

excellent story, but the sequel Tau'Va dampened the impact of the Kau'Yon. felt like an action movie

Great Tau Story Presented Well

This is one of my favorite Tau stories/content the sound effects combined with the narration and basic voice acting is something I've always wanted from 40K stories. Something in between a full audio drama and a audiobook.

My largest complaint would be with the Tau accent, I think hammering out some kind of vocal effect for the Tau than a half-asain accent present here and in other content would be a good direction to go in.

And of course, the Tau need more content in general.

short but sweet

short easy to follow story that is exactly what you expect from a 40k story. greatly appreciate the simplicity of the two short stories, the entertaining scenarios and the solid writing.

crouching tau hiden railgun

an excellent stand alone short story of a single skilled tau sniper. this is an excellent intro into the Tau for newbies or an old Shas'o.

Great story

The tau are my favorite faction in this franchise but that does not mean I'm going to be biased with that said this short story was great a bit confusing with jumping g around between the battles but that's just a knit pick other than that this story just justice to my favorite blueberries and really shows that they can be just as badass the space marines. This in my opinion is a must read for tau fans.

Great performance, basic story

The voice acting, audio, etc, were all excellent! But the story was short, basic, and only of interest if you are into 40k.

Good stories

Entertaining.
Stories were not long to flesh out characters within, but for just over one hour runtime how can you.

Nice, short story for Tau

Narration by Mr. Longworth was great as usual. Nice, short listen about the Tau empire.
